"Never Kayak fished in my life but one trip out with Dave taught me more about kayak fishing and flats fishing in general than I could have picked up anywhere else in months. Many thanks Dave I'm still catching using the knowledge you shared with me."

Gerry O'Shaughnessy-Rotonda,FL.

"I have been fishing with guides and pro tournament anglers for over 3 decades. And I don't believe I have ever met anyone more conscientious and professional than Dave Loger. Dave's passion for saltwater fly fishing drives him to be a constant student of his fisheries, species, weather, community, equipment, skills, and industry trends. He applies that knowledge with equal diligence to all aspects of his tradecraft. And he lives, eats, breathes, and sleeps the true missions of the fishing guide: bring the clients back safely, put them in front of some fish, and make sure they need you less each time they go out with you (teach).

Dave is intense. But he is the quiet, humorous, and highly efficient type of intense. And best of all, I have seen him demonstrate the integrity to turn down paying charters when it was in the best interest of the customer to do so more than once. He knows his strengths and weaknesses and those of the other guides in his area. He knows what his boats are good for and what they aren't. And he has the wisdom, self-discipline, and integrity to stay within himself - even if it costs him money in the short run. That is VERY rare in the fishing and hunting business!"

"Beyond his knowledge of the SW Florida shallow water fishery and his formidable fly fishing skills,the most impressive thing about Dave is his meticulous and complete preparation for anything you may encounter on the flats, in the back country, or under the dock lights at night. His focus is completely on you and your time on the water. I have fished with him on multiple occasions and he's put me on fish every time. When you fish with Dave, you just know you are in very good hands. A first rate guide and a first class guy!"

The fishing was not what I expected but then I came to not expect a Tarpon off the bat, but to learn. The learning was priceless! As a beginning fly angler, I only hoped to learn how to cast and to be taught how to improve on my fishing skills. I not only learned how to cast, but also caught my first fish on a fly rod!

My day on the water with Dave was an exceptional experience. Everything was set up and taken care of as advertised and the fishing was very good on the day of my trip. The fish where right were he said they would be. Dave took time though out the day to help me work on my cast. Before the day was out, there was a marked improvement in my cast and presentation. This alone was well worth the daily rate.
